Audirvana Plus 2.5.1 with PCM->DSD Conversion

[juliocat]

DSD 128 is working!!! Sound is great!!!!!! Any expalnation about DSD Filters???

[juliocat]

HQPlayer is dead !!!!! Long Live Audirvana+ !!!!!!!

 

PCM to DSD conversion is the best i have heard !!!!!!!!

[juliocat]

Audirvana is not converting to the max rate in my DAC

 

44.1 Khz files converted to 5.6 Mhz DSD

96 Khz files converted to 5.6 Mhz DSD (No 6.1 Mhz DSD)

 

Is this normal??? I tried several filters with the same result

[juliocat]

That ought to be simple for Damien to change.

 

I guess we have to wait until Munich Show ends

Version 2.5.010 does not like Nigth Ranger, everytime i search for it a try to open the page for Night Ranger in Tidal, Audirvana just exits.

 

I know this version is still a beta, so this is a bug report

[juliocat]

Steepness: 23

Filter max length: 10,000 (currently in flux)

Cutoff freq: 1.02

Anti-aliasing: 200.0

Pre-ringing: 0.55

 

Make of it what you will.

Great soundings settingsl!!!!!

[juliocat]

What was the volume reduction setting when this happened?

Have you tried with a lower value?

 

I don't think this is related to volume reduction, because i just stops and replay (same settings only to make Audirvana reprocess and load to memory again) and the problem goes away.

Just released a new beta for 2.5.1: 2.5.0.11, available here :

• Fix DSD to PCM conversion (regression that was in the beta)
  
• TIDAL catalog browsing: show album description (when available), along with the hyperlinks it contains, to navigate to related artists/albums
  
• TIDAL catalog browsing: show album credits (click on the i icon top right of the album tracks list), with hyperlink navigation to artists (for artists referenced in TIDAL)
  

Example of such TIDAL browsing, with artist bio, album description & credits:

Version 2.5.1.6 tested with El Captain sounded better than 2.5.1.4/1.5,

 

+1

I changed my library from a WD USB Portable HD to an Apple Time Capsule and the sound is much better now.

 

I'm using the Apple Time Capsule with ethernet cable, a thunderbolt to ethernet adapter and wifi disabled...

 

The same USB WD HD connected to the USB input of the Apple Time Capsule sounds better also, who can explain that?

 

Maybe Ethernet protocol is better for timing (jitter)
